Sorry, had to give up on my garden until I could find a property with enough space for a greenhouse and no HOA. Hopefully this will happen in early 2014!! I'll post some pictures once I have my new system set up.

Thanks for response. I bought a cheap sediment filter at home depot and hooked it up. What ratio of hydro peroxide to nutrient tank? I use a 100 gallon tank with water and nuts. I had read about the food grade hydro perox for algae. I'll try the dawn water mix. How much dawn to water?

Question on rainwater for my hydro reservoirs. I have a 250 gallon cistern that catches rain from roof gutter system. I'm worried about E coli or other harmful pathogens getting in water. What do you think? I have insect screen placed over cistern opening but I worry about iguana or bird shit contamination-. Should I try to filter the water first or am I over thinking it. Also, any advice on pesticides or fungicides?

I had been meaning to look into that for a while. I had thought that you may have changed something in your profile. But I'll look into it for you, and see if the administrator can restore it back to normal.
